SEPHORA Friends & Family Sale 2011

2011-10-20T14:22:00.000-07:00

It is that time again for the Sephora Friends & Family Sale! The sale starts today (October 20th) and goes through November 2, 2011. If you are anything like me, you can't resist a sale...especially one that only comes around once a year. However, this year it's a little different. What you will need to do is click on the link below and it will take you to their site where you will enter your e-mail address and receive a unique 20% code, good for one use. Only one promo code per e-mail is allowed and only 5 e-mail addresses per computer, so use it wisely.

SEPHORA Friends & Family

**Also, because I love to get the most discounts possible, I recommend signing up for EBATES and getting an additional 4% off. Ebates is super easy and FREE to join and right now when you sign up they will give you $5 cash just for signing up! You can use this with the Sephora Friends & Family Sale by clicking through the Sephora website link on the ebates website you will get 4% cash back from your purchase (sometimes the percentage goes up to 8% with Sephora, but right now it is at 4%). They will either mail you a check or send money to your paypal account (I believe they do this 4 times throughout the year) just by buying through their website. I recommend using Ebates whenever you can anytime you are doing online shopping. I figure if you are going to spend the money anyway, you might as well get some of it back!

Urban Decay Naked Palette Neutral Tutorial

2011-04-05T00:33:00.000-07:00

So, I LOVE my Naked Palette. I use it quite a lot, so as promised, I figured I would share my favorite look with you. This look is pretty natural/neutral and can be worn basically anywhere. The only thing you have to be careful of is the fall out that you can get with Urban Decay's sidecar eye shadow. In the video, I show you a little trick that helps with that. Also, I tried to give a couple MAC dupes for for those of you who don't have this palette. Hope you enjoy!
